FAQ
Discovery is how you gather the evidence you will need to prove your case as plaintiff, or defeat the plaintiff's case as a defendant. You use discovery to find out things like: What the other side plans to say about an issue in your case. What facts or witnesses support their side.
However, most personal injury cases settle before trial. Instead, they may offer the settlement well after the trial starts. This typically happens after discovery, but it may even happen after the jury reaches a verdict.
Discovery is the formal process by which the parties to a case in court exchange information about the case. This includes information about the witnesses and evidence to be presented at trial. Its purpose is to make the parties aware of the evidence which may be presented at trial.
General Information: Discovery is the formal process by which the parties to a case in court exchange information about the case. This includes information about the witnesses and evidence to be presented at trial. Its purpose is to make the parties aware of the evidence which may be presented at trial.
The Trial If the case does not settle during the discovery or pre-trial phases, it proceeds to trial. During the trial, both sides present their evidence and arguments to a judge or jury, who then decides the outcome.
The discovery phase in personal injury cases can take months or even years. The parties to the case have a right to evidence that will help them prove their case. Discovery allows both sides to interview potential witnesses and review potential evidence that may be helpful or harmful to their case.

In cases where discovery is less formal, you may be able to request documents by writing a letter to the other side or even by orally asking for them in some cases. The court itself will handle discovery in some cases, like child support, where parties are required to turn financial documents into the court.
Parties usually send their discovery requests and responses to the other party electronically, by email. But, parties may also send or respond to discovery requests by U.S. mail or a parcel service. Discovery requests and responses should not be sent to the Administrative Judge, except to support a motion.
Conclusion: Following discovery, the lawsuit needs a final conclusion. Most cases settle, with mediation being the most common means of reaching settlement. If settlement efforts fail, then the final outcome is determined by trial.
